Daddyism,

Won in the republican state con-
vention in New York. The nomlna-
ton Of Fred Grant for secretary Of
state as a tribute to his father is sim
ply setting up dead mans shadow.
The old soldier passed away under a
cloud and Fred can hardly be expect
ed to rise above it as he has never
sho any strength Of will or char
acter. He is only shallow varnish
to gloss the misdeeds Of the party
during the past twenty years. The
party that claims to have saved the
Union is now busy hunting shadows
over dead mems graves. Fred d.
Grant in the east, Robert T. Lincoln in
the west seem to be the coming men.
In their fathers shells they are just
big enough to rattle. That Is all
there is Of them but perhaps it's all
their party require.

Twenty-Eight Years.

The present issue of the Plain Deal
er completes its twenty-eighth year
Of publication. During all that time
its editorial department has been
under the control of its present editor
and most Of the time its publication
has been by it, present proprietors.
In 1859 they sent it out to the world.
and except about five years while the
junior partner was in the gold regions
they together have been its publish
ers and proprietors. During that
twenty-eight years the changes in
our subscription list have correspond
ed with the changes in the growth. pop
ulation and development of our
county. In glancing over the pages
Of its early subscription books many
names of friends long since passed
away are recalled, and old memories
revived. On the dial of time it near
ly marks the birth, life and death OF
one generation on the earth. 1t has
seen sunshine and shadow, had false
friends and true ones. The true ones
it will ever remember and cherish;
the false ones are forgiven, but not
forgotten. They are as numerous
among its professed political friends
as in the ranks OF its political oppo-
nents. The professed friends had po-
litical axes to grind and the Plain
Dealer was not their humble servant.
With these remarks we close the 2sth
round and take of our coats for the
Goth. Will the delinqnents please
pass their loose change this way?

Brave Men Behind GatlingsGuns

sGatling guns, with brave men be-
hind them, are the true remedy for
about all the strike troubles. "-Chica-

Be careful. Workinglnen who hint
at force or the use Of explosives are
called anarchists, and the paper that
is published by the grace of Armour
should not talk SO recklessly about an
indiscriminate use Of firearms. Re-
member. that if the day arrives when
the disputes between labor and CAPT.
tai must be settled by force there will
be more strikers to handle arms
than men to oppose them. Had it
been necessary to call in the Calling
gun as an arbitrator in every diff
Guilty which occurred between labor
and capital, there would be no Chica-
go Times published to-day. 1t could
not be expected of the paper referred
to, to advocate the use of sonnet hing
that it has never had any experience
with. 1t may know all about the
Calling gun, but common sense is q far
better weapon for capital to use in
dealing with labor, and l would adj

Advising the use Of eating guns is
dangerous; it is un American, and

States. Besides, the wrong fellow
always gets hit. The Pinkerton anar.

Contraction Of the currency wheth-
er by locking it in the treasury vaults
or by burning it, is the certain road
to business disaster and ruin. The
financial management Of the admins
tration is rapidly sending our bust
ness industries over that road. But
when the New York boodlers cry for
relief our sapient Secretary Of the
Treasury gets from his bed in the
middle of the night to call for bonds
paying premium Of 8 to Is per cent.
He should be relieved by ilnpeach-
ment for not calling in the bonds at
their face value as the law authorizes
him to do. Immediately.

The Entire Road Should be For
feited.

1t cannot be denied that the re-
sponsiblity for the recent railroad
disaster at Chatsworth, where nearly
. hundred people met q frightful
death and three hundred seriously
injured, rests upon the railroad CON-
pany. 1t is possible for railroad
companies to maintain such super
vision over their roads as to preclude
the possibility Of such disaster. In
seasons Of unusual dryness it is
practicable to keep such watch Of
all wooden bridges and trestles as to
maintain them in perfectly safe
condition. The capacity Of every
bridge for sustaining weight can be
80 calculated that no train need be
overloaded. There can be no AIDE
quate penalty for such q disastrous
crime unless it be q forfeiture to thu

Paternal Government.

When the people of Texas whose
crops had been ruined by drouth
applied for government aid, Mr..
Cleveland politely informed the
starving mothers and children of the
Lone Star State this ii not a pater-
nal government. The claim il A
sham. a fraud. a falsehood. so appar-
ent to thinking men, that the wonder
il that any democratic editor il 50
stupid as not to see it. or. seeing ii.
is too cowardly to expose the hypo-
crisy. When appealed to by the
PROSTATE industries OF the country TO
unlock the treasury boards and ap-
ply the idle millions in the treasury
vaults in paying the non-taxable-
interest bearing bonds held by US
urers to rob industry Of its legitimate
rewards, Mr.. Cleveland drops back
in his chair and says this is not a
paterna! government"
But when these same usurers and
robbers of honest toll have created
an artificial stlingency in the money
market, simply to enable them to
harvest the crop that belongs to
commerce and mercantile enterprise,
and are caught in their own tolls,
they apply to the administration for
relief and it promptly shows that
lit is a paternal government to
the rich" by ordering the
purchase OF government
bonds at premium not exceeding
25 per cent, when they may be law
fully called in and paid off at par,
and all interest cease in 60 days after
the call.
The call authorized the purchase
OF $4,000, 600. Had the stringency
been anything but artificial among
The boodlers of New York, the offer
OF the Treasury would have been
Immediately accepted, but when 3d..
500, 900 had been taken the hoodlers
doomed the bonds to a point where
no holder cared to avail himself OIL
the offer OF the government.
The bondholders who had the
''paternal care of the government,
have accomplished their object
They have succeeded in forcing w
the value of their bonds and have nc
interest in forcing a crisis upon mer
camille and commercial enterprise
before they can unload their secu
rites upon their paternal govern
lnent.' The plunderers of the gen
eral public now know their strength
with their paternal government, and
will undoubtedly use it for all it
worth until their bonds with thu
magnificent premium shall exhaust
the treasury surplus.

by the governor, now EFFORTS over
50 per cent. for its loans. We do not
say this unadvisedly, and can give
